Revolutionize your developer experience with an in-house CLI

Enhance developer experience (DevEx) by building an in-house CLI. Experience the magic of automated tool setup, configuration, and effortless application scaffolding for platform success.

DevEx is critical in ensuring your software engineers can achieve the productivity levels they deserve. Eliminating cognitive load from processes and configurations and reducing unnecessary boilerplate code is crucial for enabling software engineers to focus on their work.

I’ll explain how creating an in-house CLI within our organization helped improve our software engineers' productivity. Key takeaways include:

  • Understanding the problems we aim to addressLearning about the internal development and inner source implementation of our CLI
  • Understanding how we measure the impact of our CLI usage
  • Gaining insights about future enhancements we would like to implement
